"Barnett's": Climbs from 190 to 800 feet with two dips so that the total vertical ascent is about 650 feet. Two steep pitches which some riders may walk. Rutted in some spots during winter and two sections of soft sand in summer. Cyclists on descent approach the small trail crests with caution because they can mask horses ascending the trail. Cyclists can attain speeds in excess of 30 mph descending the clear portions of this trail. Ascending cyclists will average 4 to 5 mph. Use is still sparse and you will meet another user less than 20% of the time.
Blue Circle Multiuse road. Bi-directional use: Bicycle>Foot>Horse
